Mass spectrometric studies of trimethylsilylpantothenic acid and related substances
Rychlik, Michael
, p. 555 - 562 (2001)
The characteristic fragment of trimethylsilylated pantothenic acid (TMS-PA) at m/z 291 upon electron ionization was shown to originate from the molecular ion by a McLafferty rearrangement instead of by ejection of 1,1,3,3-tetramethyl-1,3-disilacyclobutane. The verification consisted of labelling experiments and high-resolution mass spectrometry of the fragment and studies on its isotopic distribution. The remaining fragmentation pathways of TMS-PA were clarified by B/E-linked scans and collision-induced dissociation. Copyright

Having been inspired by formose-based hypotheses surrounding the origin of life, we report on a novel catalytic route toward a series of recently discovered four-carbon α-hydroxy acids (AHA) and their esters from accessible and renewable glycolaldehyde (GA) in various solvents. The synthesis route follows a cascade type reaction network, and its mechanism with identification of the rate-determining step was investigated with in situ 13C NMR. The mechanistic understanding led to optimized reaction conditions with higher overall rates of AHA formation by balancing Bronsted and Lewis acid activity, both originating from the tin halide catalyst. An optimal H+/Sn ratio of 3 was identified, and this number was surprisingly irrespective of the Sn oxidation state. Further rate enhancement was accomplished by adding small amounts of water to the reaction mixture, boosting the rate by a factor of 4.5 compared with pure methanol solvent. The cascade reaction selectively yields near 60% methyl-4-methoxy-2- hydroxybutanoate (MMHB). In the optimized rate regime in methanol, an initial TOF of 7.4 molGA molSn-1 h-1 was found. In sterically hindered alcohols (isopropyl alcohol), the rate of AHA formation was even higher, and the corresponding vinyl glycolate esters arose as the main product. Vinyl glycolic acid, 2,4-dihydroxybutanoic acid, and its lactone were formed significantly in nonprotic solvent. The corresponding AHAs have serious potential as building blocks in novel biobased polymers with tunable functionality. The incorporation of vinyl glycolic acid in polylactic acid-based polyesters is illustrated, and postmodification at the vinyl side groups indeed allows access to a range of properties, such as tunable hydrophilicity, which is otherwise difficult to attain for pure poly(l-lactic acid).
